“It’s impossible to predict the future”
That’s just not true. Of course it’s possible to predict the future.
I can easily predict for example that an hour from now, I will be eating this sandwich I have here. One hour after that a bus will pass by that I will get on, and roughly half an hour later I will enter my house and hang my coat on its coat hanger. Tonight I will go to bed and then I will sleep for some eight or nine hours, and tomorrow morning I will awaken, and have breakfast and brush my teeth and… I’ll stop now.
Perhaps it’s not possible to be absolutely certain about the future, in the same way it’s not possible to be absolutely certain about the present or the past, but that’s why we invented probability estimation. And that makes it very possible to predict the future.
You did so yourself just now, when you say it’s hard to imagine mosquitoes dying out any time soon.
